Student nurses from local hospitals
A programme of single-day visits was arranged for 321 student
nurses. A health visitor gave one or more talks in the hospitals
concerned prior to these visits and attended a discussion and
question session after the visits. These arrangements entail a great
deal of work for the staff but do help to forge links between the
hospital and community services.
Senior Hospital Nursing Staff
From time to time arrangements are made for departmental or
ward sisters from hospitals to spend a day or half-day to learn about
the home nursing, midwifery and health visiting services of the
Council. This is especially useful in relation to the hospital and
domiciliary midwifery services.
